San FRANCISCO, August 3.-The Occi-
dental and Oriental steamer Gaelic ar
rived tonight from the Orient, after
the very quick passage of fourteen
days and nine minutes. She brings
Yokohama papers up to July 18th and
China news to July 18th.
5. 5. PopOtt, Chinese secretary to the
Russian legation in Peking, has Just
published pamphlet on the Chinese
population, Ia which he states it to be
49,, OOO, 900, as against 413 100000 in the
year 1872. His statistics are derived
from Chinese official sources. Chinese
native papers contain the following
Items:
A plague of sudden death is raging
at Marking. People are dying in every
quarter. There are many instances of
very sudden deaths. People are an
parently well in the morn ng and dead
in the afternoon.
The Hu Pa0 says that over one thou-
sand telegraph poles belonging to the
Yunnan (Mungtoz District) and KWei
Chow Lane line have been pulled down
by the people, who say the telegraph is
a dlabolical artifice, and harms the
geomantic influence. Troops to the
number of two thousand have been or
dered to the spot.
Last week, according to Shen Pao. no
less-than- eighty eight persons were
summarily executed near Shanghai for
belonging to secret societies.
The Shen PGO gives most narrowing
account of the floods at Chu Chau Fu'-

pe7n leveled in the phenomenal
growth of the city, and from these, as
the executions took place In the open air,
there was every opportunity to witness
the fearful spectacle This infrequency
OF executions, however, belongs to Il former
period of New York. Within the last few
years there have been as mauv as four
murderers in the Tombs at once under
sentence Of death. The public, from the
day that it WAS finished, about 1910, has
always called it the TOmbs, although its

THREE LITTLE WORDS.

Three little words were all he said
Three little words, but they turned the head
OF certain maid, who imagined all
Life's sweetness lay in that sentence small.
Never did language hold such bliss;
Never was song so sweet as this
That rsog through her heart so merrily
Over and over it's three times three.
She saw the letters wherever she went;
To dreams and duties their glow they lent;
And swceter than any song Of birds
Was the song made up of three little words.
Three little words Of Wondrous power
Changed the world in a single hour!
Three little words, Of letters eight,
All in a moment fixed her fate.
Clear as the tones Of a silver bell
Into her ear the message fell.
Filling her heart with strange content,
AnG echoing every where she went.
Oh, twas no wonder her eyes shone bright!
Oh, twas no wonder her heart was light,
And her JOY so great! for those words 50 few
Those three little words were-I tore you!

NEW GOLD FIELDS.
Discovery of Rich Mineral Deposits in
Southern India and British Guinea.

Discovery of Rich Mineral Deposits in
Southern India and British Guinea.
New and apparently rich and extern
sive GOLD fields have been discovered in
Mysore, native state of Southern In
dia. The country is an elevated table
land of largely granite formation. The
Dewan of Mysore. in his recent budget
speech before the Representative As
sembly of the State. announced that
although only a beginning had been
made of opening the mines, already
SO, 36S rupees had been paid into the
Government Treasury as royalty on
the gold extracted. History and tradi-
ton point to Mysore as a country which
in remote past produced great guam
titles of gold, and the remains of ex-
tensive ancient workings are found
scattered throughout the country.
East Indian authorities affirm that
the Ophir of King Solomon is now
identified as a part of Mysore. 1t
might be easier to take that asser-
ton for granted than to find the
proof, but if rich and extensive
gold fields can be developed in q
country having a healthful climate and
communication by rail with British In
dia, the miners can afford to leave the
question of Identification to the anti
quarians while working this welcome
addition to the specie resources OF the
world for all it is worth. Still later
come advices through Consular chan
nels of gold discoveries in British Gui-
ana No lodges have been discovered,
but about 5000 persons, mostly colored
and inexperienced in gold mining, took
out about $3.50, 900 last year by washing
in the water-courses, and this year the
output is expected to reach $4,000 900.
The climate is very insalubrious, espe-
cially to whites; but the thirst for gold
will lead thousands to dare the most
pestilential cline if it promise fortune.
1t is opportune that when the decrease
of the product of California and Aus
tralia creates fear of scarcity of gold
for the wants of business, that these
discoveries, in connection with others
in Columbia, Bolivia, Patagonia, South
Africa, China, Alaska and elsewhere,
seem likely to maintain the needed sup

MEXICAN VANILLA.
How the Beans Are Cultivated and Pre-
pared for the Market.

How the Beans Are Cultivated and Pre-
pared for the Market.
The vanilla bean CASUALLY called
vainilla) is the produce OF an orchid
creepcr which, although growing from
the root, is q parasite, as it will grow
even when cut from the root; for II
takes its substance from the tree, AROUND
which it clings by means OF its thou,
sands of fine tendrils. Like al para
sites. there are trees which are par.
ticularly adapted to its support. They
are planted about ten feet apart, IN
rows. at the foot of small trees which
are left in clearing the land. They be-
gin to bear the third year, and in
favorable years give from $500 to s., 0OC
per acre. No cultivation is needed but
to cut down the grass and weeds, no
blowing or digging being necessary.
The bean is often gathered in Septem.
Der and October, but if left till the end
of November or December it comes ts
perfection. 1t is then gathered care.
fully and spread out in the sun Oh
mats. if the weather be favorable, bu
if otherwise, ii is placed in ovens; which
processes change the color from pale
green to rich brownish or purple, and
at the 81 me time develop the oil, which
on prcssu re. exudes from the bean. They
are then packed in blankets while
warm, and put into large tin cases to
90 through a sweating process; again
put in the sun, and again in the blank
cts, until they attain the proper color.
They are tlen placed in a dry
room upon shelves made of
some open mat raj, so that the
air can circulate around and
under them. This evaporates all the
watery part of the bean. When suifi-
GENTLY dried, they are put into large
cases ready to be assorted into sizes
and qualities. The person that raises
the bean seldom cures them, for that
requires good deal of care and spec
ial attention. There are about fifteen
different classes, but they are sold by
the packers at one round price. The
people will work only about one hum
dred days in the year, which provides
them with all they need; and as they
will do no more, there is very little in
crease in the production of any Thing.
When the beans are assorted. they are
tied up neatly in punches of fifty beans
each, and packed in cases often hold
inc from two to three thousand. These
tin cases are lined with tin foil, and a
ticket placed on the lid giving the
quality, size and quantity. Some five
or six of these tin eases are put into
neatlv-made cedar-chest, which is
sometimes lined with zinc and hermet-
ically sealed, so as to prevent moisture
from getting to the vanilla in trans
port, which would ruin it. These ce-
dar eases are then sewed in mats and
covered with coarse bagging, to avoid
the danger of transportation on mules.
In this manner all the Mexican vanilla
goes to places of sale in Europe and the
United States. Formerly France was
the great market for Mexican vanilla,
but the enterprise of some of the Amer
can merchants has diverted the trade
to New York, which is now the great
depot of vanilla.-Druggtsts' Circular.

1T DIDN'T WoRK.-An old colored wreck
recently limped into a certain barroom and
requested the bar tender to give him a tri-
he of corn juice. After turning out some
three or four fingers he stood a few minutes
before hiding it from sight, as if in deep
thought. Finally he said:
GIVE a right smart attack of grippe in
my stomach and don't just figure that's 60
ing to get along we'll with it. Do you
mind changing it for a bit of gin"
The bartender replied that he wasn't'in
the habit of taking back goods in his line,
but anything for business. The old man
turned out his gin to the extent that a
match would easily float off from the top
and fall off on the floor. After drinking
he smacked his lips and started on his
way.
"Hold on, Uncle" says the manipulation
of stomach washes, 'you didn't pay me
for that GIN"
"That's all right" said the old man 81
snapped the whisky for the GIN"
Eyes, but you didn't pay me for the
whisky" was the reply.
"Why the debbil should L? l didn't
take the whisky"
There was some little chance for litiga,,
